Thanks, Disney-Hyperion, for sending me a copy of Spindle!
Disney-Hyperion really likes to give books away to our readers, and we certainly support this. In fact, they’re looking to give away another novel, called Spindle by EK Johnston, as well as a super cute miniature sewing machine to one lucky tweeter/Facebooker.
Don’t get it twisted, though. This isn’t some happy-go-lucky book about domesticity we’re talking about here. The book’s synopsis makes it seem thrilling indeed:
It has been generations since the Storyteller Queen drove the demon out of her husband and saved her country from fire and blood. Her family has prospered beyond the borders of their village, and two new kingdoms have sprouted on either side of the mountains where the demons are kept prisoner by bright iron, and by the creatures the Storyteller Queen made to keep them contained.
But the prison is crumbling. Through years of careful manipulation, a demon has regained her power. She has made one kingdom strong and brought the other to its knees, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. When a princess is born, the demon is ready with the final blow: a curse that will cost the princess her very soul, or force her to destroy her own people to save her life.
The threads of magic are tightly spun, binding princess and exiled spinners into a desperate plot to break the curse before the demon can become a queen of men. But the web of power is dangerously tangled–and they may not see the true pattern until it is unspooled.
Yep. Count me all the way in.
